Field Report: Let’s Get Ready to Rumble

[cap­tion id=“attachment_5873” align=“aligncenter” width=“240”] Pieces of con­crete foun­da­tion from old build­ings and roads on the South Island are being used to cre­ate rub­ble ramps” to help with the demo­li­tion of mul­ti­sto­ry buildings.[/caption]

How’s this for green? Some of the demo­li­tion debris from the derelict build­ings on the South Island is being used as rub­ble ramps” to help demo­li­tion equip­ment reach the top of oth­er build­ings to demol­ish. Then we’ll re-re-use the con­crete from the ramp along with the usable debris from the new­ly demol­ished build­ings as fill for new topog­ra­phy in the Parks and Pub­lic Space Project.
